Liberty Variant Skis 2013

The Liberty Variant Skis inspire confidence on big lines with big consequences. A Peri-Metal layer and stiffer tail generate massive edgehold, but don't weigh you down on the skin up. Skin friendly tip and tail shapes make this board a go-to off piste charger, but these aren't some softy touring sticks. Liberty's signature Bamboo cores provide a lively feel with exceptional torsional rigidity. Even if you spend most days riding lifts, the Variant is the perfect choice for aggressive riding in all conditions.
Rocker Type
Stealth Rocker - A long, low top rocker with camber underfoot and a flat tail allow for easy turn initiation and incredibly versatile flotation without sacrificing edge grip or liveliness.
Flex
Mid flex in the tip
Stiff flex underfoot and in the tail
Core
Bamboo Backbone - Every Liberty ski features a hand-made, bamboo laminate core that is light, strong, lively and eco-friendly. Liberty fine tunes each core and flex pattern for the intended application, but each core starts with the strength and durability of bamboo to give a dependably energetic ride, time after time.
Laminates
Peri-Metal - A full perimeter of titanal layer, die cut in the center of the ski, absorbs vibrations and prevents topsheet damage while evenly distributing pressure along the edge without the added weight of a full titanal layer.
Fiber Reinforced Polymer - Liberty uses sheets of this dense material under the binding area to increase screw retention and rigidity.
Quadaxial Glass - Liberty's custom weave S-glass creates tremendous torsional stability while allowing easy longitudinal flex to initiate turns and absorb terrain. Unlike bi- and tri-directional fiberglass laminates, this type of S-glass allows Liberty to fine tune the flex characteristics of each ski.
Sidewalls
78 Degree Sidewalls - This construction leads to increased edge grip and reduced weight. Sidewall construction is tough and affords the best combination of edge grip and turning ease.
Durathane - A polyurethane bumper smooths out the ride and protects against topsheet chipping.
Whitewall Sidewalls - This rugged and repairable sidewall material is made of UHMW, which is more resilient than ABS and can be repaired with P-Tex if you manage to gouge a hole in it.
Base
P-Tex 2000 - This sintered base provides speed and durability from the industry leaders.
Edges
HRC 48 - Liberty's specially treated edges feature a wider profile with larger anchors for greater durability and a longer lifespan.
Additional Features
Backcountry Tail - A flatter, stiffer tail with a skin compatible shape and tail notch lets you easily create snow anchors and open beers.
Skin compatible tips
Cab Forward Stance - Liberty's name for a progressive, more centered stance
Binding Compatibility
Bindings not included
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

    Comments about Liberty Variant Skis 2013:

    First day on the ski...tuned the ski first.

    Skied icy, scraped off, junky spring snow... other skiers complaind about the conditions.

    I barely noticed, anything other than the smooth non-fatigueing ride! Felt right at home on this ski immediately.

    This ski was effortless and natural...just enjoyed skiing and the ski did its job. I was really impressed!

      Comments about Liberty Variant Skis 2013:

      I tested this ski and I was extremely unimpressed. This is not what Liberty does well. The ski is designed to be a bombproof do anything ripper. But the bamboo core makes it feel really flimsy and gives the ski a terrible feel. Might be alright on soft snow, but there are so many skis out there like this that are so much better.
